Time
Verse 1
I have walked the road so weary
and have traveled far and wide
Seen the great Lion roar
And the fragile Hummingbird drift by
I have seen great meadows blanketed in fragrant flowers
I have been buried beneath the crest of a mountain
And seen the land below the ground
And has looked out upon a thousand ocean sunsets so red and so vibrant
Pre-Chorus
I will share with you my story if you so desire
It's nothing to expensive
It's only a small small price
not of coin or dollar
hard done work or wasted years
Nor tears fallen from the eyes of the angels
All i desire All i need is your time
Chorus
All i want is your time
Could you lend an ear to my story
Could you sit and listen to my dear heart's cry
I have been everywhere all on my own
it is all i desire
All i need all i want is a moment of your life
So you can hear a moment of mine
Verse 2
I have walked the mountain roads
and traversed the lowly valleys
I have heard the angels singing on a night, dark and bold
And I have heard the wolfs desolate cries to the moon
I have found comfort in a cave that held no light
I found peace with the bear cubs and slept in the arms of the great wide oak
And in the desert have worn the soles off my shoes
Chorus
All i want is your time
Could you lend an ear to my story
Could you sit and listen to my heart's cry
I have been everywhere it is all I desire
All i need all i want is a moment of your life
So you can hear a moment of mine
Bridge
Would you be daring enough to sail the seas and concor hills
And would you like to roam all the lands with me
Just to show you my story is my plea
Could you just open your heart
And look through your soul
For all i desire is to share the beauty of this world
And open the door for everyone to know
Ending
Time
All i want is some of your time
I know it's running shallow
As the ground grows colder
Time
All i ask of you is time
Just an ear to lend just a simple listener
That is all i ask for
That is all my heart desires
Time just time
all there has ever been
And all that ever will
Forever stuck ever moving onwards
Never can look behind
The only constant
In a word ever changing
Once I share my story I may finally go in peace
So long gardens
Goodbye wild things
Tell the road i loved her
Tell the sky not to cry
Tell the ocean that i will be alright
That I will be alright

I wrote this song as a reminder that anymore nobody takes the time to listen to the stories of the past. Time does not slow down and it will not stop. People wait untill it's too late to ask questions about someone's life. So next time you get the chance ask someone about their life.
